Refreshed, natural results — comfortably awake.

Specialized local anesthesia allows many facial procedures to be performed without general anesthesia, for a gentler experience and quicker recovery.

Awake Chin Liposuction

A sharper, more defined jawline

Even with diet and exercise, a double chin can persist due to genetics or aging. Chin liposuction removes excess fat beneath the chin to reveal a slimmer, more youthful profile.

  • Sharper jawline definition
  • Reduced appearance of a double chin
  • Improved facial balance & long-lasting results
  • Minimal downtime

Awake Eyelid Surgery

Brighter, more youthful eyes

Upper & lower blepharoplasty removes excess skin and fat from the eyelids to create a more rested, alert, and refreshed appearance.

  • More alert appearance
  • Reduction of under-eye bags
  • Improved upper eyelid contour
  • Natural-looking rejuvenation

Awake Neck Lift

Smoother, firmer neck contours

A neck lift addresses sagging skin and muscle laxity beneath the chin and along the neck, turning back the clock on loose skin and visible neck bands.

  • Firmer neck profile
  • Reduced neck bands
  • Improved jawline definition
  • Natural rejuvenation

Awake Facelift

Youthful contours, naturally

A facelift addresses jowls, sagging skin, deep facial folds, and loss of definition in the lower face and neck — restoring youthful contours while keeping you looking like you.

  • Smoother jawline
  • Reduced jowls
  • Tighter facial contours
  • Younger, refreshed appearance
